Histogram (for Still Image Files)
A histogram is a graph
indicating the image’s
brightness. The horizontal
axis indicates the
brightness level (darker on
the left and brighter on the
right), while the vertical
axis indicates how many pixels exist for each
brightness level.
●
The more pixels there are in centre position,
the exposure is proper and the brightness is
well-balanced.
●
The more pixels there are toward the left, the
darker the image.
●
The more pixels there are toward the right, the
brighter the image.
By checking the image and its histogram, you
can see the exposure level pattern and the
overall tone reproduction condition.
To display the histogram of still image files
Press
INFO
repeatedly while a still image is
displayed.
To turn off the histogram display
Press
INFO
repeatedly.
NOTE:
The shutter speed, F-number and ISO sensitivity
(GAIN) are also displayed as recording information
with histogram. The shutter speed displayed during
shooting in auto mode is an approximation. It may
not match the one displayed with histogram.
